Description
An easy approach pitch/scramble is required to access the base of the climb. It's an obvious left-slanting finger crack. Randy Leavitt rated it 12b.
Location
The route sits at the far eastern end, of the Grey Giant's north face. It is only a few hundred yards from the wash that separates The Fortress, and The Flying Fortress. The route gets no direct sunlight in the Spring. Approximately 4 miles from the Willow Hole trailhead.
GPS coordinates for the start: 34.0646084, -116.1514519.
